An electroscope is charged by touching it with a negatively charged rod. The electroscope leaves spread apart and the rod is removed. Then another, negatively charged rod is brought near the top of the electroscope without touching. What happens?
A. You are unable to make the observation because the rod is attracted to the top of the electroscope causing them to touch after all.
B. The leaves do not change their position.
C. The leaves move closer together.
D. The leaves spread further apart.
B & C are not right. Totally lost on this
here,
due to induction of charges
more negative charge will be inducted at the leaves
hence, they move further apart
the correct answer is
D. The leaves spread further apart.

A negatively charged rod is brought near an electroscope without touching it. The leaves are initially separated, and as the rod is brought closer, the leaves move further apart. What is the charge on the electroscope?
4. If an electroscope is negatively charged, what will happen to the leaves if another negatively charged rod were brought close to the electroscope? What will happen to the leaves if a positively charged rod were brought close to the electroscope? How would this be different if the electroscope was not charged at all?
How will the leaves of a positively charged electroscope respond if you bring a negatively charged rod near the top of the electroscope? Will the same thing happen if the rod is positively charged? Explain.
3 charge diagram questions: 1. A positively charged rod is rubbed against an electroscope 2. A positively charged rod is brought closed to an electroscope 3. A negatively charge ruler is brought near an electroscope Charge Diagrams 1. Suppose that a positively charged rod is rubbed against the electroscope shown at right and transfers electroscope. The rod is then moved far away from the electroscope. Draw the position of the needle. Draw a charge diagram for the electroscope. Charging Plate...
just 5-7 Ground your electroscope. Touch a negatively charged rod to the metal plate of the electroscope. Draw in the schematic how the charges are distributed, and indicate the new deflection of the rotating pointer once it has come to equilibrium + Perform this experiment with the charge remaining from step 3. Recharge your negatively charged object and bring it into close proximity to the metal plate without touching. We are charging by induction in this case. How does the...
Attemptsr Question 1 Balls 1, 2, 3, and 4 are hanging by strings. A plastic rod, which has been rubbed with wool, is used to touch Ball 1 1. When the balls are brought near each other, but not touching, the Ball 2 is attracted to ball 3 Balls 2 and 4 do not affect one another Balls 2, 3, and 4 are attracted to ball 1 What is ball I's charge state? O Glass O Plastic O Neutral Question...
Two students each bring a charged PVC rod near and electroscope. In each case another student touches the electroscope with their finger and then removes it. The only difference between the two situations is in where the student holding the PVC places it next to the electroscope. The first student holds the PVC near the ball on the top of the electroscope, as shown in the figure below. The second student holds the PVC next to the leaves". What will...
2.3.2 Charge the Electroscope Directly An electroscope can be charged directly by transferring charged particles to it from a charged conductor. In the previous lab, we built a device for placing charge on a conductor, an electrophorus. The video shows charging the elec- trophorus and directly transfering charge to the electroscope by bringing the pie pan into contact with the paper clip- Observe-2.5:Could your electroscope be charged directly? Draw-2.6:In the box to the right draw the location of the electroscope...
Metal spheres 1 and 2 are touching. Both are initially neutral. The charged rod is brought near without touching the spheres. The charged rod is then removed. The spheres are separated by an external agent. Afterward, the charges on the spheres are: Q_1 is + and Q_2 is +. Q_1 is + and Q_2 is - Q_1 is - and Q_2 is +. Q_1 is - and Q_2 is -. Q_1 is 0 and Q_2 is 0. Explain your choice:...
4. A negatively charged rod is brought near a metal sphere supported by an insulating stand point) without touching it. What happens to the free electrons in the sphere? OThey pass from the sphere into the stand. OThey are pushed out of the sphere and into the air OThey are pulled out of the sphere and into the rod. OThey shift away from the rod on the sphere.
